God Gathers Us

Call to Worship - Psalm 136:1-3, 23-26

To be read aloud by someone in your home:

Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good!
For His mercy endures forever.
2 Oh, give thanks to the God of gods!
For His mercy endures forever.
3 Oh, give thanks to the Lord of lords!
For His mercy endures forever:

23 Who remembered us in our lowly state,
For His mercy endures forever;
24 And rescued us from our enemies,
For His mercy endures forever;
25 Who gives food to all flesh,
For His mercy endures forever.

26 Oh, give thanks to the God of heaven!
For His mercy endures forever.

Opening Prayer

Spend some time in prayer, giving thanks to God, bringing to Him those things that are making you anxious or weighing on your heart and mind, and asking Him to fill you with a greater love for Him and trust in Him during this time of worship.

God Saves Us

Congregational Singing

  • We encourage you to sing - make a joyful noise! If you play an instrument, play! If you have some favorite hymns or choruses, pick one or two and sing! Or make use of other technology to play some music, and listen and sing along.

  • Below is some music you can make use of if these would be a help to you.

Offering

For everyone watching services online, we can still receive your offerings a couple of ways:

  • You can drop your offering in the locked mailbox outside the church office entrance

  • Or, you can mail them to the church at 393 Water Street, Augusta ME 04330.

Thank you for your continued support of Penney and its ministries!
